The Annual HK’s Hospital
Benefit Golf Tournament — traditionally held the first weekend in
June — was established by Harold Koplar, founder of The Lodge of Four
Seasons. Throughout its history, it has earned in excess of $3 million for Lake
Regional medical departments and the purchase of new medical equipment. This
year, all proceeds benefit Lake
Regional Cardiopulmonary Rehab, which cares for more than 3,000 patients
annually. The department will purchase a new heart monitoring system that will
double the number of new patients the department can accept.

“Thanks to the community
for supporting this important event again this year,” said Terri Hall, Lake
Regional director of Fund Development. “We could not be successful without our
generous sponsors, donors, golfers and volunteers.”

Hall also thanked the
event co-chairs Susan Brown, Cecilia Thomson and Walter White; and the Kansas
City Chiefs Ambassadors, who served as the event’s honorary co-chairs. Major
sponsors of the tournament included Central Bank of Lake of the Ozarks; The
Koplar Family and Fox 5 KRBK; The Lodge of Four Seasons; Iroquois
Federal/Iroquois Financial; and Lake Media.
